Whatever a monk keeps pursuing with his thinking and pondering, that becomes the inclination of his awareness.

The true master lives in truth, in goodness and restraint, non-violence, moderation, and purity.

In protecting oneself, others are protected; In protecting others, oneself is protected.

When watching after yourself, you watch after others. When watching after others, you watch after yourself.

Just as a picture is drawn by an artist, surroundings are created by the activities of the mind

Let your mind become clear like a still forest pool.

Let the disciple cultivate love without measure towards all beings. Let him cultivate towards the whole world, above, below, around, a heart of love unstinted....For in all the world this state of heart is best.
